On arrival there was no parking spaces in the hotel car park so had to find another car park to use which was more expensive and less secure. We checked in and were sent to a double room (222) this room STANK of stale smoke it was so smelly we couldn’t even fully enter the smell was so strong we could smell it before we opened the door. We returned to reception and were told there were no other rooms and the receptionist would let housekeeping know. Surely the cleaners would have picked up on this when they cleaned!! We were then told our only option was a room near the kitchen which may be loud and the kitchen fan can be heard. The room was old fashioned (124) run down, the bedside lamp on one side didn’t work due to a broken plug with wires exposed. There was no central heating but we were provided with a plug in heater. TV remote didn’t work but could use buttons on the side of the screen. Location of hotel is good for walking to shops, pubs and restaurants.

Given its location next to a grand Norman cathedral, it's very sad to see management allowing this building to get into such a scruffy state inside and out. The staff did their best to give friendly service. Poor value.

Hotel is tired, needs a refurbishment and money spent on public areas. Staff are lovely but not enough of them to keep up with customer needs. Breakfast was a prime example, it was a busy service, but plates were not being cleared and replenishment of hot and cold food not kept up with. Generally poor value for money.

Good room and bed. Choice of menu in the evening very limited. Mostly burger type food so didn’t use the dining room. Realise that it is off season and the hotel very quiet so, unfortunately, no atmosphere in the bar which we also didn’t use.
